Why does Ahmadinejad say that the holocaust is a myth? Why does he deny the holocaust? It seems that he believes that the holocaust was a conspiracy done by the jews so they could get Palestine. Why does he hate jews so much? Ahmadinejad many times has said that the holocaust did not happen. Why does he say things like that?

Why? Because he's a conspiracy theorist and an anti-semite I suppose.
Personally, I think it is because it is politically convenient.
It distracts his people from the dire state of Iran and creates support for his military activities in the region. Outside of Iran, I think he is seeking to be seen by the Arabs as a legitimate Middle Eastern leader. Without a common enemy it would be more difficult for a Persian to be seen as a leader by Arabs.
There are religious and ideological reasons as well (and maybe even some genuine concern for the Palestinian people) but I think the politics are the major reason.

Because the current muslim heirarchy in Iran is extremely anti-semitic and it suits the anti-semite agenda to claim the Holocaust was a lie..
He hates Jews.
Lifelong indoctrination and because it's the message which he's told to give.
If you're trying to gain support for the idea that all Jews are evil scum who rule the world by controlling America, it's no good if people can point to the genocidal attempt carried out on Jews by Hitler. If that's true, it pretty much negates the idea that the Jews enjoyed WWII or have any kind of global control.

He likes the TV coverage it gets him. He's a pol. Pols live for coverage. Ego boost and attention, and all that goes with "Hey, look at me, I am Mister Bigshot."
